Presidential Vehicle
As a color and material designer at Groupe Renault, I led the CMF design of the presidential car built for the Élysée Palace during Emmanuel Macron's first term. Custom-designed and armored, this exceptional vehicle embodies a subtle balance between institutional heritage and modernity, combining ceremonial solemnity with contemporary innovations.
Alongside Axel Breun, Director of Special Projects, we developed an elegant and distinctive identity, conveyed by an exclusive Amethyst Blue color and republican emblems crafted like pieces of jewelry in collaboration with a prestigious Ferrari supplier.
The refined and functional interior is upholstered in Élysée Blue leather, an exclusive color developed especially for this project, enhanced by Alcantara trim, perforated leather, and two-tone stitching. Behind the headrests, a Republican pad print discreetly highlights the institution, while an Élysée coat of arms, finely engraved on brushed aluminum, elegantly integrates into the central armrest. A tablet integrated into the rear completes this workspace.
